Chapter 5568: Not Fighting Anymore

Now, things were different.

As long as Zhen Ling agreed not to interfere with them, he could swear that he wouldn’t harm Qishen Temple after leaving.

It was a profitable deal!

So, he didn’t refute.

When Zhen Ling heard this, he was also momentarily stunned.

He understood the importance of a life oath better than Jian Wushuang.

In the past, there was no room for turning back between the two sides, so there was no thought of easing the situation; it was a fight to the death.

But now, it was different.

Everyone sat together.

Seeing an opportunity, Jian Wushuang continued, “Lord Zhen Ling, as long as you swear not to interfere with their plans, they can also swear not to do anything harmful to Qishen Temple.”

A win-win situation.

Fuego was originally cautious, but after understanding, he couldn’t help but applaud.

If it could be resolved this way, there was no need for a fight.

After reaching his peak again, Shen Ling Frolasa had a way to take him out. As for retaliating against Qishen Temple, he had indeed considered it.

The moment he left this place, he would notify the superpowers within the clan to come.

Qishen Temple was a combination of the power of the temporal river. It contained countless treasures, a legacy of a Half-Step Eighth Tribulation realm powerhouse.

Even the experts at the Seventh Tribulations realm coveted it.

Of course, he was not willing to let it go. Judging from the current situation, as long as he could get out, everything else could be abandoned.

Frolasa looked at Fuego and nodded. Both parties tacitly agreed.

Now, it was just a matter of Zhen Ling nodding.

Jian Wushuang was also tense. He wasn’t afraid that Zhen Ling would gamble; the bet was on the emergence of a super existence among the Inheritors in the future.

Even if Fuego could escape from the First Prison by then, he would still be within the Qishen Temple. At that time, he could still be slain.

Zhen Ling was also afraid. What if there was no appearance of a Sixth Tribulation realm or several powerful beings at the Fifth Tribulation realm?

Relying solely on his ability to mobilize the Origin Source, dealing with Fuego was still too risky.

Fuego’s peak strength reached a Half-Step Sixth Tribulation realm.

Even with Zhen Ling mobilizing the Origin Source, they were not evenly matched. They could only rely on favorable terrain to deal with him.

It was too risky.

“Jian Wushuang, this time you’ve achieved great merit again!” Eventually, Zhen Ling gave up the risk and chose to negotiate.

Upon hearing this, Zhuang Zhong was dumbfounded.

No more fighting?

Negotiation?

What should he do then?

“Frolasa, are you trying to trick me?” Zhuang Zhong was irritated. After enduring so much, finally becoming the protagonist, and now the two sides weren’t fighting.

Then, what use was he?

Maybe both sides would join forces and eliminate him first.

Zhuang Zhong quickly retreated, his brows furrowed.

Zhen Ling turned to the other side, saying coldly, “Zhuang Zhong, if you beg for mercy now, I can spare your life and take you out!”

A Tribulation realm cultivator, and a complete one at that, had potential for further growth. He could be a useful ally, provided he pledged allegiance and made an oath.

If so, Zhen Ling could spare his life.

More importantly, he wanted to know how this guy escaped from purgatory.

This was crucial because some of the Tribulation realm beings imprisoned in purgatory were not even his match. Errors were absolutely not allowed.

Moreover, purgatory was the core operation of the Qishen Temple, second only to the Origin Source.

There, any mistake was not allowed.

Zhuang Zhong gritted his teeth, angrily staring at Frolasa. Although impulsive, he wasn’t foolish.

Frolasa abandoned him, and he could no longer turn to Zhen Ling, letting others manipulate him!

Zhen Ling Frolasa ignored Zhuang Zhong and spoke to Zhen Ling, “Let’s make an oath first. Zhuang Zhong’s matter can wait!”

He feared that Zhuang Zhong, having just allied with Zhen Ling, would be manipulated against them.

While this might be overthinking, it was crucial for ensuring they could leave this place without any problems.

“No problem, but let’s agree on the content of the oath beforehand!” Zhen Ling didn’t care; he was more concerned about the oath.

The two sides formally negotiated and began discussing the oath.

Jian Wushuang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This crisis was finally averted.

If they hadn’t reached an agreement and had to continue fighting, he would have to hide in the Skysight Heavenly Chessboard just to survive.

However, being perpetually trapped here was no different from perishing.

Powerful beings were supposed to roam the Starry Sky, traverse every universe and timeline. Being bound was indeed no different from falling, might as well let the other party have a quick victory.

The Special Life Forms stood aside, somewhat bored.

They chatted in whispers.

“Is it over now?”

The Special Life Form with an 80,000-fold divine body clearly hadn’t had enough and felt regretful. 𝗳r𝚎𝐞w𝐞𝚋𝗻𝗼vel.𝗰o𝐦

“I thought it would be more exciting, but it is what it is!”

Jian Wushuang, not far away, heard the words and sneered inwardly.

In the battle so far, neither side had played many trump cards. Sending a clone was a preparation; after all, there was no certainty.

Just letting a puppet arranged in the Shadow Sect take action wasn’t much.

If it weren’t for his carelessness, the other party wouldn’t have stood a chance.

Shen Ling Frolasa had prepared countless epochs in advance; there wouldn’t be fewer tricks up his sleeve than a Zhen Ling, but it didn’t make much difference.

If they truly unleashed everything, these Special Life Forms probably wouldn’t survive long.

Being able to stand here and talk now was already quite good. Moreover, all these Special Life Forms that came in were their true selves; whether they could leave was still a question. Surprisingly, they were even considering whether they wanted to continue fighting just for fun.

The two sides negotiated for a full hour, finally completing the oaths.

“No problem, right? My request isn’t unreasonable!” Zhen Ling pinched the flesh of his mouth, looking at Frolasa.

Frolasa, on the other hand, frowned and said coldly, “Not being able to appear in the same time and space as the Qishen Temple simultaneously, isn’t that a bit too much?”

Over these years, he also understood that the ambitions of the Qishen Temple were significant. They not only wanted to nurture Inheritors but might also venture into more powerful timelines for battles. If they happened to encounter each other, should he really have to hide?

Don’t forget, he was Shen Ling of the Giant God Clan, and he, too, needed to battle across timelines.

Did that mean giving up when encountering the Qishen Temple?

“Humph, with so many timelines, do you have to be enemies with the Qishen Temple?” Zhen Ling glared with his small eyes and angrily exclaimed.

Shen Ling Frolasa was not weak either.

For this point, they tangled for another hour.

Jian Wushuang couldn’t bear watching from the side. Couldn’t they compromise a bit, each taking a step back?

After all this entanglement, they finally compromised, able to exist in the same time and space. However, Frolasa couldn’t threaten the influence range of the Qishen Temple.

Not even stepping into it.

Frolasa was somewhat satisfied with this outcome because neither side could step into the other’s influence, which was beneficial for him too.

“Alright, since there’s no problem, let’s swear according to the oath above!”

“Wait…” Frolasa stopped the Zhen Ling.

Zhen Ling was a bit impatient. “Are you done?”

“We’re missing a witness!” Frolasa spoke up.

A witness!

Actually, it was optional, but for the sake of formality, finding one was better.

Zhen Ling’s eyes flickered, turning to look at Jian Wushuang.

Shen Ling also did the same.

The two stared at Jian Wushuang, making him feel uneasy.
